I have zero allergies, so I am going to add people with allergies to the list of residents being packed up and sent to the ADHD leper colony.

My sinuses usually run somewhat amok during this time of year, but not so bad this year at all.

I agree with Danknee, way too funny

None of us ever had allergies until we moved back to Ohio for a family emergency. Now we all have them and can not wait to get back home to get rid of them again.......

I was born and raised here, my allergies get worse every year, I take shots. My husband has NEVER had allergies till just the last 2 years, so it's definitely growing. Not sure if it is the introduction of non-native plants, or just more plantings in general creating a higher pollen count. But I have a huge allergy to dust, olive trees, ash, mullberry and ragweed (all which we have in abundance) and unfortunately it's dusty and windy in the desert. I have heard several people mention moving to the desert for allergies which I always thought was ridiculous, as it just matter as to WHAT you are allergic to. I do use a humidifier every night to, which seems to cut down on sinus issues a bit. Can cats have allergies? I've had the windows open all week and now my cats eye is watery and itchy and she's sneezing.

I always sneeze all through spring and part of summer. Always have.
And yes, pets can have allergies too. One of my cats long ago used to have the watery eye problem and sneezing. To fix the eye, I would take a warm cotton ball and gently wipe it. She actually sat still for me to do this. One of my current cats that is a carbon copy of that kitty won't sit still at all for it. Or my other one either. I guess one teensy drop of water will be excruciating on their delicate fur.

UNLESS, of course, they were engaging in the favorite CatPastime of "Dipping fer Goldfish".

Me too...well practically born and raised.

Now I can't go anywhere without saline nasal spray, systane for my eyes and the occasional wallop provided by afrin or zicam....yeah...they are addictive and probably no good...but you have to breathe, right?

I'd love it if my adenoids would just settle down for a year or so. They seem to be chronically inflamed.
